University Research for Dissertation Purpose - About foreign ownership of English Football Club.

[RitchieNC]

I have four questions and would like the thoughts of fans about it. Hopefully, that some of you will provide their opinions to all four questions or at least one of them. Thank you.

1 - What do you think about the foreign ownership of English football clubs?

2 - What are your thoughts about the European Super League and the club’s owners involvement in it?

3 - Do you think the Profit and Sustainability rule and the Financial Fair Play rule came into play due to the increase in foreign ownership of clubs and why?

4 - What are your views on the ’50 + 1’ rule and should it be implemented in England?

Below is a google form link where you can share your opinions in case you do not want other people to view your opinions. Please do not hesitate to contribute.

1. Why does it matter who owns an 'English' football club?  We use / buy / support so many other companies in our day to day lives that are owned by 'foreigners' that we don't even question or bat an eyelid about.  Does anyone question the ownership of Lidl, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Tesco?

2. Money talks.  The club's owners do so to earn money, why shouldn't they be involved in it?  If there is demand, there will be supply.

3. No.  It came into play to 'level the playing field'.  It failed, miserably.  All it did was put restrictions on clubs with smaller income streams to ensure they could never compete.  Essentially a good idea but not thought through.

4. No.
